Ranting and reassurance for parents who aren't perfect. Of home births and hero worship. April 15, 2016. April 19, 2016. Recently, it’s really struck me how we all (or at least those of us who spend too much time googling shit and carry around an abundance of middle class guilt) aspire to a certain. Of birth.

Sometimes when I’m watching Bubs waddle around, playing and what not, it hits me: I have a child. An actual child. Ergo, I am an actual parent. Can that be right? Am I really grown-up enough to be a parent? Why haven’t the authorities been alerted? Those things have happened. That. Adults, aren’t they? Fix Up, Look Sharp. By Dizzee Rascal, for crusts sake!
